I got a promotion a few days ago, so I decided to stop for a drink on my way home — just me and my sense of accomplishment.I ended up alone in the bar, running defense against a bouncer who held my ID hostage while he commented on my ass (among other things) and asked me vaguely threatening questions about my sex life.This is not a Yelp review. It's not an angry rant, and it's definitely not something women need to be reminded of.As far as I can tell, there is only one good lesson to pull out of this otherwise shitty and all-too-familiar interaction: In my experience, a lot of thoroughly decent men are still having trouble understanding this.I have a friend who once joked that it was all right for him to catcall women because he's good-looking. I had another ask me in faux outrage why it was OK for me to describe a cupcake (as in an actual chocolate baked good) as a “seven," but not OK for him to rank women the same way. I was recently at a house party where a group of guys referred to a soundproofed recording studio in the basement as the “rape room" 45 times.Some of these jokes were a little funny. Some of them really weren't. But they were all endemic of something more sinister, and I honestly don't think the men in question even realize it.So to the generally well-intentioned men in my life, please consider this:I have a friend who once joked that it was all right for him to catcall women because he's good-looking. I had another ask me in faux outrage why it was OK for me to describe a cupcake (as in an actual chocolate baked good) as a “seven," but not OK for him to rank women the same way. I was recently at a house party where a group of guys referred to a soundproofed recording studio in the basement as the “rape room" 45 times.Some of these jokes were a little funny. Some of them really weren't. But they were all endemic of something more sinister, and I honestly don't think the men in question even realize it.This has made me defensive. It has put me more on my guard than I would like to be.Decent male humans, this is not your fault, but it also does not have nothing to do with you.If a woman is frosty or standoffish or doesn't laugh at your joke, consider the notion that maybe she is not an uptight, humorless bitch, but rather has had experiences outside your realm of understanding that have adversely colored her perception of the world.Consider that while you're just joking around, a woman might actually be doing some quick mental math to see if she's going to have to hide in a bathroom stall and call someone to come help her, like I did three days ago.Please adjust your mindset and your words accordingly.This article was written by Laura Munoz and originally appeared on 03.08.16.

"These Dems will rue the day they decided to use lawfare to stop a presidential candidate," she says. A reckoning is coming for Democrat leaders now that former President Donald Trump has been convicted in New York City, according to political commentator Megyn Kelly. Kelly on Thursday predicted that Joe Biden, former President Barack Obama, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton are now vulnerable to prosecution for their own respective crimes in the future now that Trump has been convicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business documents. “What just happened today is a line we can’t uncross. And these Dems will rue the day they decided to use lawfare to stop a presidential candidate,” Kelly said on her podcast. “You just wait, and it won’t be Hunter Biden the next time. It’s going to be Joe Biden. It could potentially still be Barack Obama. It could still potentially be Hillary Clinton.” “We’re going to have to look at what the statutes of limitations are on the various crimes they surely committed. We’re going to have to look at passing laws to revive those dead crimes, felonies, or misdemeanors so that those cases can be brought out of time.”Save 40% on our limited edition Brain Force Ultra that’s loaded with proprietary super ingredients! “The only way to save the Republic now is to give them a taste of their own medicine,” she added. Kelly compared the Democrats to a wolf that just “tasted blood” and suggested the only way to stop a wolf from “coming back for more” is “if he loses a limb of his own.” “Who’s getting indicted next?” she asked. “Joe Biden? Maybe Jill Biden? How low can we go? You may not want to see it. That ship has already left port. That horse has left the barn. That’s where we’re going.” “So before you celebrate too much over at MSNBC and CNN, who are positively gleeful, gleeful over this absurd conviction, you wait and ask yourself, ask yourself what kind of Pandora’s box has been opened here?” she added.
